Rural areas in Texas don't have a formal planning process like cities do. The Texas Department of Transportation works with individual counties to plan transportation projects, but this can lead to challenges in creating a regional strategy. To improve transportation planning, researchers are looking into the idea of rural planning organizations. These organizations could help coordinate projects across counties and improve the overall planning process. The goal is to see if rural planning organizations can make transportation planning in rural areas more efficient and effective.
